and if there are not deductions, and you say it's a good idea to spur the economy, when the economy grew 5 and 6% under reagan, it's because we did significant tax reductions of the upper class. we went from a tax rate of 70 when reagan came in to 50, and we went from 50 to 28 and the economy grew like gangbusters. that's what we need again. >> senator, last night obama reminded romney of what he said in the debates. he said, if you have ten cuts for one revenue increase, you still wouldn't support that. isn't that part of the problem, when you have republicans who say, i won't support any type of revenue increase and wow won't even accept any cuts? that makes no sense. >> well, i think everybody says there has to be some sort of compromise. and the narrative is that we won't compromise. i think we actually do compromise all the time. we compromise to raise military spending and to raise domestic welfare spending. what i would say is the compromise is not to raise taxes, the compromise is reduce military spending and reduce domestic spending. i think i've got some work even on my side on
